About

The Pioneer Room was established in 1992 with a bequest from local historian Frances Beven Ryan (1901-1990). Documents, photographs, and other reference materials are available for researching a variety of local history topics, including historic homes and properties, biographies of people and families local to Escondido, and events about the history and development of Escondido and the surrounding region. 

The Pioneer Room identifies, collects, preserves, and provides access to a non-circulating collection of records, manuscripts, and other significant resources of enduring historical, legal, administrative, and fiscal value for the community of Escondido.
